How to Get to Heaven from Belfast Episode 7 recap: Outlaws, Liars and Fallen Angels

How to Get to Heaven from Belfast Episode 7 starts three weeks before the current timeline. Greta can be seen leading a peaceful life. She is outside her house taking photos with Owen and her daughter, Maria. At first glance, things appear normal. But Greta is not at peace. She continues to be haunted by her past at Heaven’s Veil, the religious commune in which she was raised.

The peaceful living is broken as Jodie unexpectedly appears.

After discovering Jodie by the pool, Greta had already cut her holiday short in Portugal. Jodie has followed her home now. She discloses that Nora, the birth mother of Greta, is still in Heaven Veil and is quite sick.

Jodie presents Greta with a friendship bracelet and informs her that there is something important she wants to tell her. She says that she has been encountering Charles Sampson everywhere. She takes these visions to be an omen of God. Due to this, she believes she has to tell Andrew about his father. Greta refuses. She is aware that the truth will ruin all.

In How to Get to Heaven from Belfast Episode 7, we get to know that Jodie has already done something. It was she who made the call to Andrew and bade him come to Knockdara. She also went ahead and planted the Dictaphone, which holds some vital evidence, in the mysterious box at the centre of the investigation. Jodie was driven by guilt and the desire to confess. The conflict between the two females becomes violent. Greta, in a frenzied state, pushes Jodie down the stairs. The fall kills her.

This proves to be the hint that the show was giving out: it is Jodie who is killed.

We also get to know in How to Get to Heaven from Belfast Episode 7 that there was mutual guilt on the part of Greta and Jodie. They had set fire to a church several years before. They were not aware that there were children in it. Everything that followed has been determined by that trauma.

In the current timeline, all of them are drawing near the truth.

After they escape from the lighthouse, the three jump back to town. At the police station, the situation becomes heated. Liam and Andrew are pursuing the leads left in the Dictaphone and the notes left by Charles Sampson. Their search takes them to Nora O’Hara, the birth mother of Greta, who is alive in Heaven’s Veil.

They also intend to excavate the old school grounds, thinking that Charles could be buried there.

In How to Get to Heaven from Belfast Episode 7, secrets begin to leak at the station. Maria receives a call from Greta, and she is crying, and assures her that she has not died. Maria then talks to Owen about her mother.

We also get to know that Booker was outsourced by Owen and Margo to assist Greta in disappearing after the death of Jodie. Booker serves in a secretive organisation that purports to assist women with nowhere to turn, but they do it through extreme means, and their actions tend to be violent.

Booker, Feeney, and the Midwife belong to this secret organization called Evaporation Society. They have their headquarters behind a salon. Booker exposes that Jackson, the man she had blown up, has been “taken care of.” She feels that she can resolve the situation with Greta.

The leader of the group, Rossa, however, is of a different opinion. He thinks that the only remedy is to kill Greta, as well as whoever happens to know too much. It appears that the organisation, which initially aimed at assisting the vulnerable women, is now corrupted by money and power. Booker does not feel at ease with the distance to which they have wandered.

At some point, Booker even steals the Dictaphone at the hospital, which implies that she is on the path of coming up with her own solution.

In the meantime, in How to Get to Heaven from Belfast Episode 7, Dara and Robyn find something outrageous in the lighthouse. The mysterious letters that said “Please find me” had been sent by Saoirse. The letters were not Greta at all. Saoirse sent them as she was interested in reuniting the group. She was unable to bear the distance that was increasing between them.

It was a desperate act, not a manipulation.

Saoirse, though, committed another gaffe too. She had penned the hidden corpse into her Murder Code TV script. This fact assisted Liam in determining that the body of Charles had been hidden. Now her determination has endangered them all.

Dara and Robyn walk out, leaving Saoirse behind. Liam comes in and challenges her on the burial. She ends up breaking the truth to him about Greta and the falsehoods they have been averting.

Liam and Saoirse kiss in an emotional scene, even though everything in their lives is collapsing as of How to Get to Heaven from Belfast Episode 7.
